Giffordland was a small barony, but the families associated with it played an active part in the history of feudal Scotland.
The name is given as just 'Gifford' on Armstrong's 1775 map〔( Andrew Armstrong's map. )〕 and Ainslie's 1821 map〔(John Ainslie's 1821 map )〕 and as 'Giffertland Mains' on the first 6 inch OS maps of 1840 - 1880. A Giffordland Mill, originally with stepping stones and now a bridge, lie at the Caaf Water (Keaff in 1747〔(Roy's Military Survey of Scotland 1747-55 )〕 ); a smithy lay close to the Caaf Water near the Dalry to West Kilbride Road. A limekiln were located near to the 'Mains' farm buildings. A ford existed over the Auldmuir Burn until the late 19th century.
The Auldmuir Burn runs through a deeply cut glen which has been planted up with beech trees in the vicinity of Giffordland Farm. A small building sat close to the junction of the road to Auldmuir an a building known as 'Green House' is marked as a ruin in the 1840–1880 Ordnance Survey map and an active settlement on Roy's map of 1747.〔
